Chapter 307 - The Difference Between 4.9% Sync Rate
3000 spheres of blood rotated at high speeds , as the antic.i.p.ation in the crowd reached at a all-time high , everyone wanted to see that glorious move.
Rudra was bound to the earth by shockingly a move that was not blood magic , it was a normal spell . It was a blunder on Rudra"s part to think that nightmare only had blood magic in his a.r.s.enal.
However , nightmare also made a mistake , in thinking that Rudra was defenseless against him , when the rain of blood bullets shot out towards Rudra , unlike what most expected , he was not pelted with the bullets .... Instead Rudra busted out TWIN BLADE HURRICANE!
/ [ Twin blade hurricane ] : A dual wielder skill , can be used to attack or defend , a very fast and intricate movement of two swords that can destroy a opponents armour and deal a lot of surface cuts , or help create a 360 degree strong defense . /
It was the same move Rudra used in his match against Parallax .... That time it was to attack , and this time it was for Defense.
An extremely fast sword defense , as blood bullets pelted against Elven sword and Excalibur , naturally Rudra"s sword movements were not faster than a sea of bullets and did not provide 100% immunity , however it definitely mitigated 70% of the incoming damage.
Rudra"s top of the line Knight"s armour , a level 75 , dark gold grade , full armour set , further reuced the damage dealt to him . As finally a damage of -7000 registered on Rudra!
Rudra was shocked that he still recieved 7000 damage , while nightmare and the rest of the crowd was shocked Rudra recieved ONLY 7000 damage ..... What the h.e.l.l was that defense technique?
( A loud uproar erupted from the crowd , they lost their minds at this exchange! )
Rudra started to close up on nightmare again , who recalled his blood dots back around him to create his signature blood Lance"s , Three Lance"s shot out again towards Rudra , which he evaded successfully .
This was by no means an easy feat , unless Rudra had such incredibly high stats , and unless he had such precise control over his character he would have never been able to dodge this attack .
Some Lance"s literally missed his body by a centimetre.... Which was exactly the margin of error he was afforded. Had Rudra been using his VR helmet instead of the new Pods , without that extra 4.9% sync rate , he was toast!
When Rudra evaded all the attacks , the crowd antic.i.p.ated him landing another blow onto Nightmare , just like the first time around when , however when Rudra went in for the TWIN BLADE CROSS SLASH , to hit Nightmare , his swords actually clashed against hard metal!
BAM! the impact sent nightmare flying , as he flipped mid air to land back on his feet , even then the momentum forcing him to slide another meter .
A s.h.i.+ning black and red spear in his hand , a solid physical weapon . The three blood Lance"s also regrouped alongside Nightmare , and transformed back into b.a.l.l.s of blood floating around his body.
A look of utter shock and confusion spread on Rudra"s face , his eyes looking as if it had seen a ghost. It was not the fact that nightmare had used a physical weapon to repell his attack that shocked Rudra , however it was the weapon itself.
Rudra knew that weapon all too well .... It was not something that a player should possess.... That blood red and black spear with the s.h.i.+ning silver tip , inlaid with a golden dragon coiling along its body ... This was a legendary grade weapon called " Overlord spear " used by " That " existance in that catastrophic event , about 2 years from today"s timeline in his past life.
Why did nightmare possess it ? Why had the timeline altered soo majorly? Had nightmare foundout the route to the lost land of the dragons?
A million questions arose in Rudra"s mind .... As a lot of things started to make sense now ..... The terrifying blood dragon move that nightmare used ... The Overlord spear in his hands.... It had to be!
Rudra gritted his teeth , as he prepared for a brutal battle .... His chances of victory had been slimmed down to an even lower probability than before... With the Overlord spear in his opponents hands , a very difficult uphill climb awaited Rudra.
The detail that Rudra currently missed out however was the fact that nightmare was actually a very proficient physical fighter of the spear , but the reason behind him bringing out this weapon was not as simple as it seemed.
He was out of mana , he needed time to recoup from his major mana expenditure in the battle upto now. Rudra had pushed him to the limits where he needed to bring out the Overlord spear . Nightmare was at his strongest when he brought out this weapon however, he was much more than just a blood controller who fought at distance , and the world would watch it first hand ! The only reason no-one knew this fact , was because never before did his mana run out before defeating his opponent. This was a first , and for the first time, would he face a player with his full might!
-----------
Derek Ray : look at that s.h.i.+ning weapon In nightmare"s hands Lee , seems like he is s.h.i.+fting his battle style to physical fighting , how about that!
Lee Dixon : well personally I don"t think it"s a good idea to fight the leader of the Elites in a close range hand to hand combat , I think he should stick to using his blood manipulation from distance. This is a double edged sword that could see him buried deep into trouble.
Derek Ray: well we never know Lee , however let"s take a moment and appreciate Shakuni , coming into this match n.o.body had any expectations for his victory , but he is doing pretty well I"d say , this is more of a fight between equals , with twists and turns every minute. This is an excellent brawl between two champions! Who will win it.... I"m not soo sure anymore !
